Food Facts - HubMob of Food Ethics and Traditions
Food, Food, Glorious Food!
It's that time again. The newest HubMob topic has been chosen and announced in this week's forum thread. As you can probably tell by the title, it's all about food ethics and traditions. These hubs are jam-packed with essential food facts that are sure to inform and entertain you.
Our HubMobsters (writers) have worked hard to put these articles together for you. Please give the hubs a read and then come back and leave them some feedback. It's easy, just click the little circle next to 'Good!', 'Great' or 'Phenomenal' and then click on the 'Vote' button below the poll capsule. It only takes a second but it lets the author know how s/he is doing. It's also a nice way to pay them back for giving you valuable information about your favourite foods or meal.
Food Facts - Ethics and Traditions
HubMob Team - Lots of Ethics
Those of us on the HubMob team like to think of ourselves as oozing with ethics. Not in a gooey way, just that we have lots of 'em. For those of you who aren't already familiar with us, here we are:
Ryan (Hup) Hupfer - Communicator of Awesomeness and official HubPages employee
Princessa
- team leader and terrific morale builder for the HubMob cause. If
you'd like to know more about the HubMob process, Princessa has written
this great guide that you are going to want to read.
Shirley Anderson (me) - I take the hub links from Princessa's weekly forum thread and put them into a hub like this one.
Normally, our pictures run along side of our names but I've been experimenting with different formats lately. Besides, you're probably tired of seeing us by now. You say you're not? You say you want to see our mugs? Okay then, check out a previous HubMob hub and have a look.

Want to See Your Writing on This Page?
If you like to write, why not join us here at HubPages? You can even participate in the weekly HubMob, if you want. That means that your writing can appear on this page today.
All you have to do is grab your HubPages account and then write a quality hub about food ethics and traditions. I will personally add your work to this hub for all the world to see. Before you start, be sure to check the forum thread for instructions (link near top of this hub).
If food facts aren't your thing, that's okay too, because you don't have to write for this week's HubMob...or any at all. You can write about almost anything you want and it gets published under your own name or any name that you choose. As if that wasn't enough, you can even make a little extra coin from ad revenue.
What are you waiting for? It's fun, free and easy!
